My daughter and I enjoyed going to this museum. While, there isnt a ton of things to look at, for only $2, you cant really beat that. Its worth a stop-off if youre in the Tuscaloosa area.

Surprisingly a lot of fun! Its not the biggest museum or anything, but there was a lot of Alabama history and interesting things in there. Even the history of the building itself.

Front desk girl was so sweet. And the museum was very nice.

A few people were stuck in the elevator !! Its a single unit and the controls were being used upstairs and downstairs, causing a malfunction. Otherwise the experience was great, my second time being here and this time was better than the first!

Great, always enjoyable and informative.

Small and quick museum! Recommend for a rainy afternoon. They recently put a Discovering Alabama exhibit down one of the hallways and its really cool!

It is not very big but it is very nice and well managed and it only cost a few dollars to get in. I really enjoyed it.

We really liked it. Very quiet, nobodys bothering you... Just a nice Self paced learning experience

Nice little surprise on the UA campus. It does have some empty space that could hold extra exhibits but the admission is negligible so it is still worth a visit. Several good fossil exhibits.

I had passed it many times before actually going in to the museum, but once I had gone in I didnt want to leave. They have many cool exhibits and very detailed plaques so you know what youre looking at. My favorite things were the interactive topographic sand box and the Mastadon skull

We had a great time

Neat place to hang out for a few hours.

An unplanned stop on a road trip, but definitely a great one! The museum was filled with great and interesting exhibits, and the gift shop was fairly priced.

A gem right in the middle of campus. Fun for kids. If you listen closely, you might hear Dr. Smith too. ;)

Good museum for information on Alabama wildlife and nature. Admission price is good and the interactive exhibits were neat. Great for kids!

This museum is fantastic. is is located on Alabamas campus, and is extremely cheap for the quality of exhibits they have. They have several fossils, as well as rocks and minerals on display and is an excellent place to visit if you have an interest in geology or paleontology. I would recommend going to this place if you have the opportunity as it is well worth the time spent to visit it.

The staff are great with kids! The Education Coordinator does a wonderful job with the programming for the museum. The University of Alabama is lucky to have such wonderful and dedicated employees.

Family Vacation was good to see my twins of 5 yrs old awww over dinosaur bones.

Great museum, there is so much great stuff to see here and the admission isnt crazy high like some other museums.

They have great events for children. You can easily walk through the place a few times and miss something and be surprised by it later because of the open floor plans of the exhibition.

Gotta love a dinosaur hanging from the ceiling

Full of fun exhibits and a large, open area for events. Exhibits include minerals, rocks, fossils, local wildlife, and some human history. An interactive virtual sandbox shows how topographic maps work and watershed processes. Entrance fees are low and parking is available immediately behind the building.

Not a sprawling museum, but a neat place and beautiful building.

The Natural History Museum is one of my favorite spots to visit on campus, and I always bring out-of-town guests here. The main gallery is beautiful, and is a great space for special events. If youre a fossil enthusiast, the museum has several great specimens, and you can also see the only meteorite confirmed to have ever hit a human. The programs are very engaging and educational for people of all ages. My favorites are the Halloween event, Family Night, National Fossil Day, and Living History Day. I recommend making a day out of visiting all the university museums--you can start on campus with the Natural History Museum, Gorgas House, and art galleries on Woods Quad before heading to the Warner Transportation Museum and then Moundville Archaeological Park.If youre unfamiliar with campus, there are a few museum visitor parking spots in a small lot behind the museum, accessible from Hackberry Drive, and you can park at the Bus Hub on Smithwood Drive for a small fee. As far as physical access goes, there is a ramp at the right side of the building, and there is an elevator that travels to all floors.

Several very interesting displays in a beautiful building.

There were great exhibits and information. While this was not the best museum Ive ever been to, I was amazed at the quality for the minimal entrance fee of $2! The employee working was also helpful.

Building was gorgeous items exhibited were interesting but too many replicas

Love the meteorite that hit the lady!

My brother had his wedding here in July. It was actually a pretty great venue. I would love to come visit the museum again.

Roll TIDE. My first trip to the school for a game. Hopped in here to look around. Its ok. Obviously this is not a priority for the school. But I enjoyed it.

Fantastic museum very nice and well managed.

Small, but interesting. unfortunately for me the day I visited, a private function being set up and many of the displays where concealed behind the function tables etc. I would have liked to see more local content. Nothing much about the Native Americans at all.

Good show peices. Not large but great for a rainy day. Good verity of things to check out.

Better have a campus map and know where to park before attempting this stop. Small but informative geological museum.

I just love museums

Small museum but worth going.

Had a great time

For kindergarten thru 12th grade and seniors it only cost $1. My grandchildren, 12,13,and 16 year olds, truly enjoyed visiting this museum. Its mostly about ancient bones and rocks.

Very interesting and we got in free, just loses its luster as you progress.

Well worth the trip.

Old school cool.

Beautiful. Great for special events.

A museum focusing on the natural history of the State of Alabama. The admission is cheap and the exhibits are great for children. They offer a number field trip. Also a good venue for a wedding.

Very interesting venue for Alabama history.

Of course I rate my institution highly!

Like everyone else says, cheap and small but has interesting artifacts. The interactive sand was really cool

Really neat museum! Super friendly staff. The kids had a great time.

Not a great deal to see but very much worth the time. Lived in Alabama all my life and just got out that the largest meteor crater is here.

An unplanned stop on a road trip, but definitely a great one! The museum was filled with great and interesting exhibits, and the gift shop was fairly priced.

Decent museum, lots of cool stuff but pretty small overall.

Very educational

A quick visit covers it. Too many empty spaces.

Theres not that much to see, but it is a fun experience

I loved the museum! The problem was finding parking being that its on a major school campus.

Such a hidden gem! Loved it
